What MOS if Army? Which service if not Army? Are you trying for senior enlisted ultimately? Warrant? Commissioned? College thus far? Assocs? Bach? Grades? GPA? Also, there are recruiting district senior staff as you obv know, it’s depend on what more you can relate about goals, objectives, ambitions...obviously you’ve been around the recruiting block as have and others here, I’d been Army ROTC, couldn’t finish the program, got denied elsewhere, incl by USAF for OTS, I wrote an appeal through the officer program staff, they let me do it ultimately, though I had to go through the program twice, and still bollocked up my AFSC, analogous to MOS, and wound up in the wrong place in the wrong group, and couldn’t change it, so believe me, I’ve had more than my share...I’d wanted USAF Mac, they had a 20/100 minimum, whereas NFO/WSO/nav for Navy had a 20/200 minimum, which made zero sense for carrier landings since the standard was lower...you could request a reassess by ophthalmology outside on your own of the astigmatism, and give the recruiting group the writers if it bears you out not being as bad as the MEzpS clinicians thought, as well possibly, give me your thoughts and elaborate I’d be eager to hear more no rush....

Was a medical waiver disapproved? You require an RE Code waiver, was that approved? Just ask for a clarification on your disqualifications. Talk to the Station Commander (the senior NCO in charge) if you are not satisfied with the answers given by a recruiter. Obviously, there is a disqualification somewhere if a recruiter is avoiding you, otherwise you would be enlisted by now. You are entitled to know what your disqualifications are.

That is a new one, MEPS is always its own animal.

They all have goals to meet and unless the guy/girl needs a waiver that the recruiter doesn&#39;t think would be given, they should be helping the person enlist. There must be a reason and the recruiter needs to step up and explain the problem. I would go up the Chain of Command until I got an answer, good or bad.

The medical issue should only require an eye consult. The recruiters are probably waiting for the CMO at MEPs to clear you after the consult results come back CPT Private RallyPoint Member Wed, 29 Aug 2018 16:33:11 -0400 2018-08-29T16:33:11-04:00 https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/should-i-go-over-the-recruiter-s-head-if-they-are-not-trying-to-deal-with-me?n=3921920&urlhash=3921920 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>It is up to the MEPS Doctors whether you are qualified or not, and if it will take a waiver, if so, then and only then can the recruiters off you something.
